NYC-based Brooklyn Dumpling Shop will open its first Texas location next week in Dallas, at 2548 Elm St, marking its sixth location and first outside of the New York area.

"I found Brooklyn Dumpling Shop after years of searching for a restaurant franchise that felt right to jump into and invest," Texas franchisee Sam Cole said in a company press release. "My wife and I fell in love with the tech behind it and the fact that the creators were pursuing a concept not only with efficiency, less food waste, but ultimately a solid product with a dedicated following."

Guests order online or using an in-store kiosk, scan their barcodes and pick up their orders in a locker from the shop's modern take on the historic automat.

"The Dallas location will feature 14 hot and four cold lockers and a pick-up window for guests to sit inside the main dining room for a quick yet comfortable dine-in experience where we offer 34 seats," Cole said in the release. "We chose Dallas because I've lived here for close to 20 years, and it's a great market for national brands to expand. We selected Deep Ellum because of the diverse crowd of lunchtime office inhabitants, local residents and late-night partygoers that are either familiar with our brand or will quickly do so with the quality, convenience and pricing that goes hand in hand."
